It’s one thing to talk on social media. It’s another thing to back it up with your actions.
No, we’re not talking about disgraced Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant. We’re talking about his trash-talking daughter Kaari, who went viral for scoring a basket on her mom and playing it up to the camera.
Kaari is a natural star
Reposted by several major outlets, fans couldn’t get enough of the hilarious video, posted on TikTok by Kaari’s mother, KK Dixon.
The 4-year-old hooper starts the video by carving out a private moment with the audience. “I got this, y’all,” Kaari assures, before tossing an insult at her mom and punctuating it with an emphatic thumbs down.
“I know she did not just say my mom is poo,” Dixon joked in the caption to the video. Kaari proceeded to score a contested basket, and come back to flex on the camera Morant-style, screaming “you see what I got!”
Between the aggressive trash talk, the basketball skills and her uncanny awareness of where the camera is at all times, she seems to have basketball star written all over her. She’s not shy of the spotlight either; the 4-year-old’s Instagram account has over 200,000 followers, more than four times her mom.
When will Ja Morant return to the Grizzlies from his suspension?
Ja Morant is serving a 25-game suspension for “conduct detrimental to the NBA” after posting himself with a gun on Instagram multiple times. So far, Memphis has severely missed its superstar, posting just six wins in its first 20 games of the season (6-14). The good news for Grizzlies fans is that Morant could return in less than two weeks, as early as their game December 19th against the New Orleans Pelicans.
If the Grizzlies need more help in the meantime, they might want to give Kaari a call.
